Public bug reported:

I installed ubuntu over a previously existing system, this happened from
the first alpha I tried, and every live-(daily)disk beta/alpha version
afterward.

To replicate:

1 Install ubuntu on a system  ( in my case I used btrfs as the filesystem, and 
separate home and root partitions )
2 install ubuntu on the same system, but now do not format the partitions.
2a have a nice crash.
